Mario Marrone presents an accessible introduction to the history and evolution of attachment theory, which traces the early roots of attachment theory from the work of its creator John Bowlby through to the most recent theoretical developments and their clinical applications.
As a practitioner, highly recommend this to anyone interested in attachment theory, especially in their work. Explains concepts with warmth and grounded in social context. Covers historical evolution of theory, clarifies and raises points for discussion, as attachment-based therapy not only in psychoanalysis itself but also with other kinds of psychotherapy. Suggests principles for child rearing and even social policy.
Still reading this book and on the whole enjoying it. It is making the topic accessible for non psych person, recommend it for those interested in the theory of attachment.
